Incorporating Honeycomb and Cave Concepts: Balancing Aesthetics and Functionality
The designer embraced the core principles of nature and sustainability to create a comfortable office environment. Root-like iron pipes, towering tree-trunk columns, and angled glass openings blur the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors by letting in natural light. The use of wood and iron materials, all recycled from waste, genuinely fulfills the eco-friendly concept while delivering an aesthetically pleasing and bright workspace.
Striking a balance between aesthetics and functionality, as well as capturing subtle spatial nuances, tests the designer's creativity. Originally serving as tree-like water pipes, these columns house internal wiring and pipelines. To break away from the rigid impressions of a traditional office, the space incorporates numerous forest-inspired elements. The concept of caves was also pivotal, and the process of communicating this vision with the client took considerable time. Using recycled materials gave discarded items a second life, showcasing a deep dedication to sustainable craftsmanship.
Breaking the Monotony: Lush and Stress-Relieving Forests
This project spans an area of 30 ping. To eliminate the stagnant and monotonous impression of an office while connecting with the outdoor space, the interior was designed to evoke a lush forest. Features include root-like iron pipes, tree-like columns, and golden filament lights simulating the play of light and shadow beneath tree canopies. In the meeting room, live fish swim within a transparent glass enclosure, further dissolving the boundaries between inside and outside. These design choices reduce feelings of confinement, allowing occupants to feel at ease and perform at their best.
